This document describes the Panasonic Air Conditioner, a heat pump system designed for both single and multi-split applications, offering a range of models for various indoor and outdoor unit configurations.
Function Description:
The Panasonic Air Conditioner provides cooling, heating, and dry modes to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures. It incorporates a built-in Network Adaptor, allowing remote control via a smartphone app (Panasonic Comfort Cloud). The system is designed for individual or simultaneous operation of indoor units, with priority given to the first unit turned on. It features a "nanoe X" function for air purification, moisturization, and deodorization, and a "Powerful" mode for rapid temperature adjustment. A "Mild Dry" mode is available in single-split systems to reduce air dryness during cooling. The unit also includes an "Inside Cleaning" function to enhance internal hygiene.

- Biocidal Product: Incorporates a device generating free radicals to inhibit pollutants (bacteria, viruses, mould). Active substances are generated in situ from ambient air or water. Cross-flow fan coating treated with 2-octyl-2H-isothiazol-3-one (OIT), 3-iodo-2-propynylbutylcarbamate (IPBC), and Zinc pyrithione to inhibit mold and fungi.
Usage Features:
- Basic Operation: Start/stop with OFF/ON button, select mode (AUTO, HEAT, DRY, COOL) with MODE button, adjust temperature with TEMP UP/DOWN buttons.
- Clock Setting: Set time using CLOCK and SET buttons on the remote control.
- Airflow Direction: Adjustable via AIR SWING button (upper/lower and lateral direction). Manual adjustment of the flap is not recommended.
- Fan Speed and Quiet Operation: Select fan speed (including AUTO) and "Quiet" mode for reduced noise.
- nanoe X Function: Activates cleaner air, skin/hair moisturization, and deodorization. Can be activated when the unit is ON or OFF.
- Powerful Mode: Quickly reaches desired temperature (stops automatically after 20 minutes).
- Mild Dry Mode (Single Split only): Reduces air dryness during COOL mode.
- Sleep Mode: Provides a comfortable sleeping environment by automatically adjusting temperature and dimming indoor unit indicators. Can be set with a timer.
- Timer Function: Set ON/OFF timers for the unit at two different preset times.
- Auto Restart Control: Restarts operation with the last mode and airflow direction after a power failure (not applicable when TIMER is set).
- Wireless LAN Connectivity: Built-in Network Adaptor for remote control via the Panasonic Comfort Cloud app. The Wireless LAN LED can be turned off if not in use.
Maintenance Features:
- Regular Cleaning: Essential for optimal performance and to prevent malfunctions (e.g., "H 99" error code).
- Indoor Unit: Wipe gently with a soft damp cloth. Avoid sharp/rough items. Coils and fans should be cleaned periodically by an authorized dealer.
- Front Panel: Wash gently and dry. Removable for cleaning.
- Air Filters: Wash/rinse gently with water every 2 weeks. Dry thoroughly in shade. Replace damaged filters.
- Outdoor Unit: Clean debris and ensure the drain pipe is clear.
- Inside Cleaning Function: Activates after turning off the unit and pressing the nanoe X button for >3 seconds. Runs for up to 2.5 hours with low fan speed to clean the indoor unit. Do not turn off power during this operation.
- Seasonal Inspection: After extended non-use, check batteries, clear obstructions, and run in COOL or HEAT mode.
- Extended Non-Use: Activate HEAT mode for 2-3 hours to remove moisture, then turn off power, unplug, and remove remote control batteries.
Safety Precautions:
The manual emphasizes strict safety precautions due to the use of R32 refrigerant, which is mildly flammable. These include:
- Installation: Must be performed by trained and certified personnel in a room with sufficient floor area (Amin m²). Avoid ignition sources.
- Servicing: Only by trained and certified personnel. Ensure no refrigerant leaks, use appropriate leak detection equipment, and avoid ignition sources.
- Electrical Safety: Do not use modified cords, share power outlets, or operate with wet hands. Ensure proper earthing and use of ELCB/RCD.
- General Safety: Do not insert fingers into units, avoid direct exposure to cold air, do not sit/step on units.
- Disposal: Follow national regulations for disposal of used batteries and the appliance itself.
- Remote Control: Keep away from infants and small children to prevent battery ingestion. Do not use rechargeable (Ni-Cd) batteries.
